</code>

Edit eggdrop.conf or Create your own configuration file (.conf) using nano or vi then run it using:
<code>
$ ./eggdrop -m <configuration filename>.conf
</code>

To verify the signature:


<code>
$ gpg --keyserver ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-key E01C240484DE7DBE190FE141E7667DE1D1A39AFF
